#VeryShortStories : Mother.

The mood was set. Everyone in the hall was enjoying their favourite rock band when suddenly some uninvited guests forced their way in and turned the entire environment upon its head. The gunshots increased the tempo of every persons pulse, drum beats and heart beats stopped almost simultaneously. The 3 terrorists who looked no older than the average crowd present at the hall were doing their job to perfection. Within a matter of seconds they had raised havoc and were still unsatisfied at the gory picture they had painted on the floor.

News channels went into overdrive with more newsflashes than they usually stormed the people with... everyone was aghast at what was happening. The count of dead bodies increased with every passing minute, loved ones hoping for the best yet fearing the worst, Paris had been attacked not just physically but emotionally as well. The hashtags to support started featuring heavily on social media and everyone was glued to their television screens to know more about the incident which had plunged humanity to a new low. The army and the police worked in tandem to grasp what ever could yet be salvaged and prevent any further lives from being lost due to the inhumane actions of a bunch of extremists. As quickly as they could, they wiped out the terror as they got rid of the terrorists one by one.

"ALL TERRORISTS HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED" the newsflash finally displayed. As billions of people around the world heaved a sigh of relief upon reading those words, a mother silently wept all alone at the loss of her only son.
